An Introduction to the Critical Study and Knowledge of the Holy Scriptures, Vol. 4 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from An Introduction to the Critical Study and Knowledge of the Holy Scriptures, Vol. 4

III. Besides the Pentateuch the Jews ascribe to Moses ten psalms, from psalm xc. To xcix. Inclusive. There is, however, no solid evidence to prove that these psalms were composed by him; for the title of the ninetieth psalm a prayer of Moses the man of God which, they pretend, must be applied also to the nine following psalms, is not sufficient. The greater part of the titles of the psalms is not original, nor, indeed, very antient: and some of them are evidently misplaced: we find also in these psalms the names of persons, and other marks, which by no means agree with Moses.
